I'm very happy to share the final version of our paper, “MCT1-dependent mitochondrial lactate import sustains cardiac metabolism,” out in Nature! We show how lactate fuels heart mitochondria and helps protect the heart during stress. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @UofUBiochem 1/10

Before there was a Cluntun Lab, there was a question:
Can lactate enter mitochondria?
Today, years after that question first took shape, the answer is published in @Nature.
Yes. And MCT1 helps get it there.

Proud milestone for our lab.
This Perspective brings together ideas we've been developing for years into a conceptual framework for understanding lactate biology. I hope it provides a useful lens for thinking about lactate beyond concentration alone.
Huge congratulations to @NichoOffei for leading this work, and thanks to @RutterLab for recommending us for this invited Perspective.
